The Drama of League 25: A Full Report
5 rounds. 12 players. More intrigue than anyone is admitting to.
Vivienne Blake, your favorite Music League correspondent | League 25
Darlings, League 25 has concluded and the results are — how do we put this — *exactly as expected*, and yet somehow *entirely surprising*. jsexe walked away with 76 points like they had planned this all along. Fitz finished second and I can only imagine the feelings. The final margin: just 1 point.
The submission that had everyone talking: "Puttin' on the Ritz" by Taco, courtesy of jsexe. 13 points. Was it a calculated choice? A gut feeling? A message? We may never know. But jsexe will not be forgetting that score anytime soon — and neither will anyone else.
"The late 70's/early 80's music bordering on soft country will get me every time"

The "Eric's Theme - Terms of Endearment" round — won by revleitner with "Somebody's Baby" — set the tone early. From there, it was a game of nerves. "Carrie's Theme - Unconventional Love Songs" went to Fitz with "Crimson and Clover" by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts (11 pts). Every pick is a tell, if you know how to read it.
The same cast, but the dynamics? Always shifting. Always.
Genre-wise, rock dominated, with motown close behind. Nostalgia for the 2000s ran deep throughout. Meanwhile, Jared at the bottom of the standings with 37 points — we don't say *loser* in this house, but we do say *character building*.
jsexe, the crown is yours — for now. The music league giveth, the music league taketh away. League 26 promises to be *very interesting*. Don't miss it.
